35s fit on a Defender with no lift or cutting?

Wow that's awesome.

This thread needs more pics.

my SWB MQ cost 2100, to fill up the 80l tank costs 95, i get 850k off a tank, 750 if im offroad,
it has no power stearing, but unless your trying to turn without moving then you dont notice it, and if you do notice it then u need to harder up!
it is not the most comfortable thing in the world to ...

Geez ur fuel prices are different to ours.....

Gas is hoverin round th 70c mark and
Diesel here is $1.36, give or take, cost me $105 to fill from almost dry on saturday and I'll get close to 600 from it.
When I'm wheelin it uses bugger all fuel as i don't use that much throttle.
Mud, obviously ...

What do you call cheap?
I'm cheap. I have a GQ wagon.

I used to have leaf spring cruisers, but much prefer coils now and not for the comfort either.

While saying it's better to slide th leaf pack over an obstacle rather than scratch a shiny new bar.
If u don't get the shackle over it and bend th ...

It seems your not considering diesel? Why?

Coil VS Leaf. Well, leaf is fine. Nothing wrong with them in fact they have a few advantages. But main advantage of coils is comfort, and they tend to flex better. Leaves hit stuff 1st offroad though (front most point on most 4x4's) which can be good and ...

I apologise in advance. :lol:
I'd like to buy a 4wd sometime in the future (could be two years at this rate) but, there is the question of what to buy, or atleast look at and consider.
I'm poor, and cheap, so whatever it is, it's going to be beaten up and will probably rattle like loose change ...

Just wondering if anyone has any information on this?

I have heard of other dudes being turned away told to wait until the laws change "SOON".. thats Victoria.

This scares ...

In my quest for a an affordable (read: I'm cheap) 4wd, most of my "research" has been looking at Range Rovers, Bunderas, and the odd look at the really cheap GQ (dreaming). So through this I've seen the odd 110 in the trading post for a nice small figure.
Which has brought me to ask these questions ...

If you know what you are doing they are easy to work on and just as reliable as other 4x4's. There are HEAPS of aftermarket bits available, and most of the bits from rangies 1970-1992, all discoveries 1989-2000, and 110 landies 1984-current are interchengeable (to a greater or lesser degree), so ...

I think the "original" redzook (NSW) has the clearances on zook to lux diffs.

Your comment on MQ patrols :rofl:

Do you intend on driving the vehicle any great distances? If so the Sierra may be a little small. Hilux is very versatile, sierra is very nimble.
The longest distance will be a few ...

It is worth considering an old 2 door rangie.

They can be picked up cheap
They are pretty powerful (V8)
The 4 speed manual is basically indestructible
They have good suspension travel in stock form
Almost all have Power Steer

Cons:
They like leaking oil
The axles/diffs are not as strong as a ...

Im doing research on some vehicles before i leap into the deep end and buy myself one.
This will be my first 4wd.(i've been wheeling a few times, just that this would be my own vehicle)

Im on a tight budget, max of 5k, really dont want to spend more than 4 cause im a tightass, and im poor (double ...
